[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please do not serve people. It’s rude and wasteful.

I agree 100%. Not everyone likes everything; people have diets they want to follow; people have restrictions and even allergies that they don't wish to discuss or defend. Never never ever ever put a plate of food in front of a grown adult unless they specifically ask you to or agree to that when you offer.[/quote]

This is so interesting to me.  I am a chef and plating the meal a certain way is part of the experience. In our home, our Thanksgiving guests are our families and we are well aware of any food allergies.  Since I’m asked to host every year, I guess nobody thinks I am rude (shrug).  You, on the other hand, both sound like very rude dinner party guests.[/quote]

99% of people here are not dining with chefs on thanksgiving. We are sitting with our family and in-laws. You are the exception not the rule. We didn’t order a plate, so we shouldn’t be served like a child. Not to mention over and under serving.[/quote]

I still would never think it was rude if I was a guest in someone’s home and they put a plate of food in front of me.[/quote]

Would you think the guest was rude if they only ate half the plate? Didn’t care for your green bean casserole and lumpy potatoes? [/quote]

DP.  No, I wouldn't.  I would expect they ate a bite of it and decided that it wasn't to their taste.  [/quote]
